I thought that "You're Beautiful" was one of the worst songs of last year (right up there with Hinder). But, I don't know. His more upbeat stuff is alright, in a way reminds me of Todd Rundgren. I wouldn't buy a CD, but I wouldn't change the station, y'know?

Yeah, cause liking a one-hit wonder fed to you by VH1 makes you really unique

I love people who use this line to make themselves seem like the independent thinker to show off on a forum. You really are so much better. I mean, all the music you listen to was personally scouted out by you yourself. No one has ever told you (fed you) that you should listen to some band. You find all your music yourself. I wish I could be this guy. He doesn't take that mainstream bull****. He knows where it's at.

wow

You really seem to have an unhealthy obsession blackflag49. But hey I'm not going to preach.

Oh well, a friend of my sworn enemy is still my enemy. I see you've been recruiting for your forces blackflag. And you've even gone as far as arming women, children and James Blunt fans... you sick son of a bitch

No one knows what it's like... to be a dustbin... in Shaftesbury... with hooligans...

And that's not because it's "mainstream" or too poppy. It's because his songs are dull, predictable and very very weak. And I don't think I could ever forgive him for inflicting 'Beautiful' on my poor fragile ears.

I agree 100%.

That stupid delilah song is worse though...

For the record: I don't hate anything because a) I'm told to hate it or b) it's mainstream because in both of these cases you limit your possibilities. I just don't like James Blunt because what I've heard bored me, failed to inspire me, pissed me off when I'm driving, etc.

I actually do like James Blunt. His lines are simple but his music is good. His first album was awesome, songs like "Billy", "So Long, Jimi" and "Cry". "Cry", are you kidding me?, call it cliche but that song is powerful. His new stuff is good too. His songs "Annie" and "I Can't Hear The Music" are really good songs. And yes, I even like him enough to see him in concert. I did, and guess what, it was a really good show.
